Hello,

I'm looking to place a price on my rebuilt 390 engine but I only have a rough idea. I had it professionally rebuilt at a machine shop in Nashua, NH 8 yrs ago with the intent of putting it back into my fathers 68"AMX. Now I'm thinking of selling it.
It's been kept on an engine stand inside a garage. I turn the crank every couple months and always keep a little oil in the cylinders. I live in NH. Below is a list of the work I had done as well as the new parts I bought. The engine has NEVER been started and I have receipts and boxes for everything, including instructions.

Any help on the value and a realistic price to ask would be greatly appreciated. THANKS.
